It is $600 per year because it is factory and still does not have much HP. In fact the cat turbo has nothing compared to the yamaha's or skidoo 1200 turbos.

That's who it is through. Drayden is the broker and Novex is the insurance co. that does the special rate policies for the ASA.

ok so i had the gf (she's an insurance acct manager) run some #'s through as far as she came up with for alberta.....there isnt even anywhere to enter wether the machine is a turbo, engine size, or HP, its all value based, one a stand alone policy (by itself)....it will mkost likely be more $, if your ins. company will allow you to put it onto your vehicle ins. its easier and will probably save money, its basically like insuring a vehicle.....once you want full coverage, a 100k truck it going to cost you more to insure than a 20k truck....the liability end of it doesnt change much and is cheap...... now this might not be for ALL ins companies, but for all the ones she could run 240turbo's #'s through none came up asking for anything about turbo or mods, just year, make, modle, value.......
insured at 25,000......she got a quote for 2600
insured under 20,000, she got back around 2000

11% is redonckuless!!! most of the ppl who own sleds are making paytments on them!!! I would like to meet the guy who thinks $233 a month on top of payment, fuel, transport, and lodging is pocket change.

but is that collision or just liability.....liability stays close to the same....the collision is what changes based on value
I use Cooperators and they have no problem covering my sled, 07' M8 Turboed. Gave them value of 18K and bam done! I pay around 800/year for both my M8's and my quad. Might just be the agent to, who goes the extra mile!
That is full coverage, they even take it off during the off season and leave fire/theft on it for much lower $, with just a phone call.
I used CBL Oxford before and they raped me, I switched everything I own to Cooperators in Eckville Alberta.

An update.
Have been going back and forth with my ins. co. for the last couple days trying to figure out if they were going to continue the coverage on my sleds at a decent cost. At first I was told no tolerence for T/sleds. Which meant no coverage on the turbo. Following a little conversation I had this afternoon with the regional VP, things changed significantly. I received a call from my broker asking what I had said, as she was told by the ins. co. to get him whatever coverage he needs. She and I were both very amazed with the change of there decision. I now have full coverage on my 08 Nytro MTX w/Turbo as well as my 09 XP sleds. All for the sum of about $1100.00/yr. From no tolerance to come on and we will give you a great rate in a matter of days... I am confused... Although very happy!! What a ordeal that was!!!!
So what I get out of this is don't just settle with your broker. Start diggin and don't stop till you get what you need. And don't be afraid to throw a little weight around if at all possible. Hope this helps some others that are having the same issues.
Good Luck and Cheers
